The Open Mouse has now closed. After twenty years of posting poems, mostly twice weekly, the time has come for me to say thank you to all the poets who have sent me submissions over the years. Your work has pleased me a lot, and it has been a great pleasure to publish you. I wish you well in your poetic careers in the future.

Dear Colin,
I’m vey sorry to hear that this is coming to and end: I do hope it will remain online for as long as poss, as there’s so much good stuf in the archives. Whatever you’re going to get up to next, I wish you joy f it.
